Prime Minister Narendra Modi is going to visit war-torn Ukraine on 23 August. This is the first time in the history of Ukraine that an Indian Prime Minister is visiting Ukraine. And that too in the middle of war. The war between Russia and Ukraine has been going on for a long time. In such a situation, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is going to visit Kiev on the invitation of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. This visit of PM Modi is going to be important in many ways.
The enlightened people of the Indian community living in Ukraine believe that this period of Prime Minister Narendra Modi is important for them too. They are also expressing hope that India can play an important role in ending the ongoing war with Russia. In this sequence, Aaj Tak talked to Professor Mridula Ghosh of Ukraine’s oldest university, restaurant operator Kuldeep Kumar, Dr. Alok Bansal, Ravi Singla associated with pharma company, Amit Mishra associated with agro industry and Ram Dange associated with food processing industry.
‘We are very happy’
During this, Professor Mridula Ghosh said that the people of Ukraine and all of us want the Prime Minister’s visit to open a new chapter in our contacts. Because this is the first time that an Indian Prime Minister is coming to Ukraine. It has been 33 years since Ukraine was declared an independent nation but our Prime Minister has never come here. That’s why we are very happy. So we hope that we will have contact relations. It is also expected that this visit will play an important role in the ceasefire. And some solution to this war will emerge.
Kuldeep Kumar said that after the Prime Minister’s visit, the result will be that there will be a ceasefire. The people of Ukraine also feel the same. Modi ji will write history in the times to come. Many people tried. And India will take important steps in this direction. We have high hopes.
‘Only Modi ji can stop this war’
Dr. Alok Bansal said that we have been waiting for Modi ji’s arrival for the last two and a half years. We knew that this war would not stop until Modi ji came here. Only he can stop this war. He is respected in the world, I think there will be no leader in the world who is as famous as Modi ji. So we have full hope that when Modi ji is coming, he is not coming just like that, he will bring some message. Due to which we and all the families will be able to sleep peacefully.
Ravi Singla said that there are many areas where India can play an important role. Medicines are needed at many places here. In such a situation, Ukraine and India together can do great work in the pharma industry.
Amit Mishra, associated with the agro industry, said that Ukraine and Russia needed such a person who would come in between and make a compromise. Convey the message of both to each other. After the arrival of Narendra Modi ji, there will be a compromise somewhere and some message will come out. PM Modi will stop the war. We hope for restoration of peace.
‘Peace will be restored in Ukraine’
Ram Dange, associated with the food processing industry, said that this historic visit is taking place at a time when Ukraine’s enemy does not want to see it in the room of an independent country. Ukraine’s Independence Day is also the next day of Modi ji’s visit. In such a situation, this tour is important in many ways. Everyone hopes that after this peace will be restored in Ukraine. There is enthusiasm among all Indians about Modi ji’s visit.
